Maybe stop calling sentient beings food is a good first step.

If you're not vegan, you're a part of the problem.
We don't need everyone to be 100% vegan all the time. It would be best, but that's not really possible for many many reasons.
We do need to reduce our consumption of animal products altogether for sure, even a 30% reduction worldwide would have an absolutely massive impact. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good enough.
The more people that go vegan the more people there are that see the genocides that are happening for what they are and would fight to stop them. All we need is a tipping point amount of vegans.
